May 1 Red Sox at Orioles

[jung]

It would have been merciful if that hit Valdez on its way through the infield.

[Old Red]

Same for Cherington, Tito and John Farrell. Once you are gone, bash away because beating the dead horse gets him into the Derby, right?

 

This game has turned in to a fitting well deserved end to the road trip.

They deserve to ride in an old school bus on the trip back to Boston.

It would have been more merciful if the rain had continued.

[moonslav59]

This seems worse than the opening series sweep, last year.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nothing against Cora, but perhaps the SOX should start next season with a new manager. The SOX have been very successful with 1st year managers in recent history.

[Jasonbay44]

This was painful to watch. I was in Baltimore being s*** talked by a guy wearing a RYAN MCKENNA JERSEY and I couldn’t argue his points because they were all true. We do suck

The shortened Covid season doesn't count.

Looking at the attendance it appears there were plenty of places to sit where you could have been alone.

Ha ha! How is this 'nothing against Cora'? Dear Alex--nothing personal now, you've done great. But you're fired. Always--for JH

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cordero may have just earned a starting spot at 1st.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Three 1st year managers and 3 championships. Just playing the odds.

It was during the rain. It was either get soaked, or deal with idiot orioles fans. I dealt with the fans and headed out after a few drinks and watching Valdez wonderful inning. One of worst games I ever attended

Well, the guy who said the SOX suck appeared to know his baseball.

He also told me Ramon Urias is better than Trevor Story, so he apparently knows his baseball

Fire Tim Hyers

"May Day! MAY DAY!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

But it's early.

I believe Trevor is better at high altitudes.

[Jasonbay44]

Kevin Plawecki is pitching. Wonderful

[moonslav59]

Kevin Plawecki is pitching. Wonderful

 

See, I told you CERA was real.

 

LOL!

 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I wonder if Plawecki can catch his own pitches; like Bugs Bunny.

[moonslav59]

True, but often the tone of a season is set rather early in a season.

 

I'm still far from giving up, but they are really pushing the envelope, here.

[jacksonianmarch]

Cora needs to take some blame here. The sox continue to just send everyone up with the hit sign on and they're all swinging for the fences. Now, 9 runs isnt ideal, but the sox cannot seem to generate runs. It wasn't until the Yanks started to play small ball a couple weeks ago that they started to win. Big ball is dead. The days of your 160lb string bean 2ber hitting 20 bombs is over. You have to be able to hit to situations now and attack the basepaths. The sox just look apathetic

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Fire Tim Hyers

 

Then hire Tim Fyers.

Kevin Plawecki has been your most effective pitcher today

[Jasonbay44]

The 2022 Red Sox gave me aids

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cora may have found his closer.

Nearly pissed myself, lol.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Grand Salami!

Grand Salami!

 

Just when we needed it most!
